Loretta was such a great friend and I miss her so much already. Prayers for Leland, LaNeysa and her family. Tears are prayers that travel to God when we cant speak. Your favorite verse: Isaiah 26:3-4 Thou will keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth. Trust ye in the Lord for ever: for in the Lord is everlasting strength.

Sorry for your loss. It seemed as though Aunt Loretta was always there whenever we would visit Grandmother Maggie's house while growing up. I wish I could be there for her funeral but things always seem to get in the way. Know that I loved her dearly. She was a good - no, a great influence on my life.
